What kind of chicken is this???

[amelia413]

I do not have a single white chicken in my flock, but after incubating a set of eggs, I hatched this pretty girl. Any ideas on where she came from or what kind of breed she is?

What breeds do you have?

Do you have any red sexlinks?

 

[amelia413]

Yes we have red sexlinks, golden comets, also some Rhode Island reds, some austroplorps, some buff Orpingtons, but our roosters are a Rhode Island and an australorop

Okay, your rooster has to have been the Australorp. He's got a solid color pattern (E/E) (Your RIR is technically wheaten Columbian, which is not a solid colour.)

Your sexlinked hens carry dominant white (that's why they have the white tails and wing tips.)

Solid color (E) + dominant white (I) gets you a solid white chicken, possibly with a bit of leakage.

Have you ever heard of Austra Whites?
Just wondering if one of the Buff Orps or Golden Comets is really light colored - genetically speaking.
